Food choices were fine, but did have issues at the Steak House (Los Liros). With staff and length of time ordering. If your going to have smoking and vaping rules, maybe you should inforce them. There so called foam party was not necessary at the adults only pool. But then again kids didnt need to see naked butts and neither did we. Foam in the pool and broken balloons everywhere. Not smart for an Eco resort.

This wasn’t a resort for me being a younger person. Seems more so for an older crowd. The views weren’t the best looking out of the window. I wouldn’t stay there again. My room was pretty dark. Seems a bit outdated and could use some remodeling.

I suggest Spending a little more to get a better resort with better food. Receptionist never answered. The resort try’s to push clients into buying memberships after telling them no. Resort also pushes staff to buy photos. Beach smelled like poop!! Last time going. Dnt go ppl

Traveled with an infant and family (group of 10ppl). Immediately after arrival, we were talked into setting up a breakfast meeting for a timeshare. We also met up with an Expedia rep at the resort who offered to book reservations for us, we were able to reserve Brazilian for the following evening(Monday). Since we were there from Sunday evening until Friday morning we would only have 4 evenings to have dinner at their reserved restaurants. Same day that afternoon we went to the main pool, set up, and decided to go look for drinks since the swim up bar was closed, we ended up at the sports bar & got multiple drinks for different people in our party & the server had a long face, we started to walk away & I decided to get one more so I walked back up & asked for another one & she said "you only asked me for one so I said- yes I got one & now I'm asking for another" I apologized after receiving my additional drink & received no response from her (hence I speak both English & Spanish, so this is not a language barrier thing). After spending time at the pool & heading back to the room, we stopped by the reception desk again to make reservations for the other restaurants but to our surprise we were told we could only have 2 reservations. I paid for "all inclusive" you'd only assume.Not all restaurants were open/available, there seemed to be a lot of construction going on around the resort & was really not enjoyable to be sitting next to the pool & have hammering noises in the back
